That's awesome Sreten, glad you're getting some $ for your efforts! Keep em coming!

Yeah, 250k views and 6k+ subs in 6 days.. Insane! I'm speechless. Never thought it'd get this far, most of the time I don't know what I'm doing, lol.

Don't be so bashful. Own it like Henry Winkler - your videos are engaging, humorous, and informative.

Sreten,
Over the weekend I watched all videos starting from the first introduction of silver 750li and up the most recent episode. You're doing a fantastic job! I love restoration videos and your format is excellent.
Keep up a great job and I am looking forward for more episodes!
P.S. it is great to see that such as amazing machines are returning back to life.

Everybody has to start somewhere. Just remember us plebs when you make it big.

Great work as always, Sreten! Loving the videos, and you definitely deserve the views and subscribers. Compared 99% of car channels out there (with "project" cars, click-bait, etc), your videos are incredibly refreshing to watch.

Keep going! Loving the V12 BMW love, there's so many neglected and abused ones here in the US.

Thank you, Chaplian! I'm planning to keep the content relevant and to be all about the car in the spotlight, close up shots of repairs and so on.

The E31 has fallen off the map and so many have been neglected over the years so it feels good to bring attention to it.

That's awesome Sreten, glad you're getting some $ for your efforts! Keep em coming!

Thanks, Will! Def feels great to get something back.

Hah, I appreciate it, Will! My girlfriend claims I'm not funny and if she met me now and saw the videos, she wouldn't date me, lol.

That's so great to hear! I had a vision in my head how I wanted to go about the videos and I wasn't sure how it would turn out but really makes me happy when I read positive comments like this.

Engineering that went into the 8 series back in the day is mind-boggling, the green one was sitting for 10 years and after service and some repairs, it's back in business.

Never, ZHPfamilia is still my favorite place to hang out and share my adventures. : )

I'm making some slow progress on the E31 from Malaga.

Previous incapable mechanic, if we can call it a mechanic, used electrical tape on the wires inside the fuel pump assembly and glue to patch up a 30-year-old strainer.





Rebuilt and sorted.









New wires as a good portion of old ones were bad.









Almost ready for the first start!

Part 1 of project Malaga, E31 850i is finished and live on the channel. I had a great time on this road trip!

Sreten, as always, excellent video!
I was very surprised by how rusted both mufflers are. Engine bay looks very clean thought.
You are hunting in Spain only or it is just happening randomly? Southern France should have clean cars as well, right?
